Set just 60 miles from New York City with an easy commute by train or car, Big Bluff is a rare waterfront offering along a private drive in Bellport Village's coveted estate section. Positioned high above the shoreline, the home captures uninterrupted views across the Great South Bay, its elevated setting giving it both presence and privacy. With 172 feet of bulkheaded waterfront and a private dock, access to the bay is immediate-whether for boating, paddle boarding, or simply being close to the water. From here, Ho-Hum Beach is just a short boat ride away - morning swims, a few quiet hours on the sand, and back in time for lunch outdoors overlooking the bay. The grounds unfold as a series of well-composed outdoor spaces, anchored by lush, manicured gardens that have been carefully tended and refined over the years. A 16' x 50' heated pool is set within this landscape, while a private tennis court with its own elevated viewing deck adds another layer to the property. Multiple seating and dining areas follow the light throughout the day, including an outdoor kitchen with a Kalamazoo grill and pizza oven. A garden with herbs and a separate vegetable garden bring a more intimate, lived-in rhythm to the setting. Inside, the home is oriented entirely toward the water. The living room is defined by its height and scale featuring soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a wood-burning fireplace, with the bay as its constant backdrop. The dining room continues this line, positioned to take in wide-open bay views. The kitchen is set within a distinctive space, designed to draw in light and water views from multiple angles. Custom wood cabinetry is paired with high-end appliances, including a Viking range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, dual dishwashers, and a wine fridge-equally suited for quiet mornings or larger gatherings. Two bedrooms are located on the first level. One, with its own fireplace and direct outdoor access, offers a more private setting, while the second overlooks the gardens. They share a full bath. Upstairs, the primary suite is positioned to take full advantage of the views-sunrises over the bay becoming part of the daily rhythm. The suite is complemented by a spa-like bath. Two additional bedrooms complete this level, one facing the water, the other set within the gardens. The lower level introduces a more relaxed side of the home, with a media room, fitness area, full bath, and steam shower-all connected to the outdoor spaces and pool. A two-car detached garage sits discreetly on the property, with an upper-level space offering flexibility as a private office, studio, or quiet retreat. Beyond the property, Bellport Village residents enjoy access to a private ferry to Ho-Hum Beach, as well as golf and tennis at the Bellport Country Club, along with a vibrant Main Street of shops, restaurants, and galleries just moments away. A property defined by its setting, scale, and years of thoughtful stewardship - Big Bluff represents a rare opportunity along the Bellport waterfront.
